MT. OLYMPOS: THE CREATION

A film by Athena Krikelis and Dimitris Zisopoulos

Scientific preview of the soon-to-be-released International Documentary on the formation and geologic insights of the Abode of the Gods by award-winning Ellopia Media.

WITH A HAMMER AND A LOOP

A film by Ioanna Parlatza

A look into the spectacular world of Geology, through the eyes of students and professionals. Metals and minerals, earthquakes and landslides, underground water and technical projects, extreme weather conditions and climate change, fossils and the evolution of life, caves and volcanoes, mining and environment, hydrocarbons and geopolitics are all parts of various disciplines of Geology. Assistant Professors Vasilios Melfos and Alexandros Chatzipetros, geologist Zoe Pantazopoulou and director Ioanna Parlantza cooperated closely for this documentary, which was filmed under the auspices of the School of Geology of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki.
